Pillars, Flames and Nine

Someone had gotten here first, but in Ryu's estimation, this was better than the alternative. After all, he had taken into account the possibility that Starlight had already cleared everything of import and thus he was wasting his time.

Though, of course, the odds of this being the case was low. While it was possible for Starlight to find many, clearing them all was probably an impossibility for any one person. Just thinking about the history of these Heavens, it was impossible. How could one person possibly gather up what was essentially the entire past of the Fourth Heaven to themselves?

Ryu circled the formation once and seemed to understand it. After a moment, his gaze flickered and he entered the void, traveling through a spatial node. When he came out the other side, he was already within the limits of the formation and the scenery around him had completely changed.
